203: Chapter 202 [It Turns Out to Be Liu Rui] 203: Chapter 202 [It Turns Out to Be Liu Rui] The Ye family’s villa area, where Ye Tianchen lived, was neither large nor small.
It wasn’t a gathering place for Capital City’s rich nor was it a hub for the powerful.
However, owning a villa in Capital City ant the families here indeed owned so connections and wealth, so the scenery of this villa area was quite pleasing.
At that mont, Ye Tianchen, together with the beautiful woman who had suddenly visited, had already seated themselves in a small gazebo nearby, ready to start discussing so matters.
As for why this beautiful woman had suddenly co or what her purpose was, Ye Tianchen didn’t know.
At that ti, inside the main hall of the Ye family’s villa, Luo Yan furrowed her brows, and Ye Qianwen looked at her mother with puzzlent, asking, “Mom, who is that woman?
What business does she have with brother this late?”
When Ye Qianwen ntioned it being late, she didn’t an the ti was late, but rather, it was odd for such a beautiful woman to visit her brother Ye Tianchen at ho after dark.
“Qianwen, I indeed want your brother to marry early.
Back when he was carefree and reckless, I hoped he would get married soon, so soone could keep him in line and make him responsible.
Now, I want your brother to marry early because I don’t want him to be left with a bad impression of won.
Both Qi Ruxue and Ling Yuxun are very nice girls; I’d be happy with either of them as my daughter-in-law.
However, this woman who ca to see your brother, I absolutely cannot accept her!” Luo Yan said while looking at her daughter.
“Mom, the girl who just ca to see brother, if you really want to compare, she is even prettier than sister Ruxue and sister Yuxun…
and her butt is also quite big, just to my brother’s taste!” Ye Qianwen cheekily smirked as she spoke.
Luo Yan glanced at her daughter.
When Ye Tianchen used to be a prodigal, Luo Yan thought having such a sensible and adorable daughter should be enough.
Now that her son, Ye Tianchen, had also beco sensible and obedient, she was even happier.
However, the recent events indeed made Luo Yan sowhat unsettled.
She could sense changes in her son, Ye Tianchen.
Initially, she just thought Ye Tianchen had beco more sensible, but now it seems that not only has he beco sensible, he also has beco quite bold, displaying a heroic spirit of defending reason over favoritism, ready to strike with his fist at anyone who dared to provoke him.
What parents don’t wish for their children to be successful, capable, and enhance the family’s prestige?
Especially now, with the declining Ye family being belittled even by ordinary forces, it really needed soone to rejuvenate and restore the Ye family’s prestige.
However, Luo Yan, as a woman from a major family, understood one principle: in Capital City where powerful families and cliques were nurous, the rise of a single family was bound to be suppressed by major forces, making it extrely difficult and likely to end disastrously.
Therefore, Luo Yan would rather have her son, Ye Tianchen, live a peaceful and quiet life, avoiding any life-threatening danger.
“Do you know who that woman is?” Luo Yan, startled, asked her daughter Ye Qianwen.
“Who?
I haven’t seen her before!” Ye Qianwen replied curiously.
“Liu Rui!” Luo Yan said, a bit sternly.
“What?
It’s her?
What…
what does she want with brother?
It can’t still be about that incident, can it?”
Hearing her mother Luo Yan’s words, Ye Qianwen couldn’t help but worry for her brother, Ye Tianchen.
She absolutely hadn’t expected the suddenly-visiting woman to be Liu Rui.
About the matter between Liu Rui and her brother Ye Tianchen, Ye Qianwen, of course, knew.
However, she was in her first year of senior high school and living on campus at the ti, so she had not gone to the Liu family nor t Liu Rui.
Back then, Ye Tianchen had spied on Liu Rui bathing, creating a huge scandal that shook several major forces.
Not only were people from the Liu family outraged, but also many followers of Liu Rui and scions of powerful families declared they would kill Ye Tianchen and gouge out his eyes for having desecrated their goddess, Liu Rui.
To calm down the matter, Ye Qianwen’s parents personally took their son, Ye Tianchen, to apologize to the Liu family, enduring much humiliation.
Fortunately, they managed to save his life.
Since that incident, Ye Tianchen began to change, perhaps due to the humiliation.
Watching his parents plead with the Liu family had deeply hurt him, and he didn’t leave the house for a whole month.
When he finally did, it was to drop out of school and join the military.
Since then, there should have been no contact between the Liu family and the Ye family.
Given the Ye family’s declining situation, they had neither the status nor the power to stand on equal footing with the Liu family.
It was presud that there would never again be contact between the two families, and yet Liu Rui unexpectedly ca in person to see her brother, Ye Tianchen.
This indeed left Luo Yan and Ye Qianwen perplexed.
Of course, they were unaware that Ye Tianchen had traveled to the U.S., primarily to protect Liu Rui on a mission, and the two had already made contact before this.
“Just say what you need to; I still have to go ho for dinner!” Ye Tianchen looked at Liu Rui and spoke in an indifferent tone.
Regarding Liu Rui, had it not been for Ye Tianchen’s curiosity and desire to seize the opportunity to travel to the U.S.
to witness Superpower Users, plus his promise to Cang Lang, Ye Tianchen would never have protected Liu Rui.
After returning to the country, there was no further contact between Liu Rui and Ye Tianchen.
Although there might have been so misunderstandings in the past, it was impossible for them to be as close as good friends, let alone be together, as it would always be sowhat awkward.
Liu Rui glanced at Ye Tianchen and said irritably, “Do you think I wanted to co see you?
Don’t flatter yourself!”
“Since you don’t want to co to , there’s nothing more to say.
Goodbye!” Ye Tianchen shrugged and stood up, ready to leave.
Just as Ye Tianchen turned around, Yong Chun Tai blocked his path.
Ye Tianchen had a lot of respect for Yong Chun Tai.
No matter how powerful a person was, one must never disregard the old and the young or be arrogant.
Such people could never truly beco powerful.
“Yong Chun Tai, I don’t want to fight you, but don’t force !” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.
“Maybe I’m no match for you in a fight, but this ti, we want to ally with you.
To be precise, we want to cooperate for mutual benefit …” Yong Chun Tai also said with a smile.
“Mutual cooperation?
For mutual benefit?” Ye Tianchen asked, stunned.
“Yes.
That incident years ago when you allegedly spied on bathing was really strange.
With your rudintary skills at the ti, it would have been impossible for ten of you to enter my bathing room, so soone must have wanted to fra you and tarnish my reputation as well.
Don’t you want to find out who that person was?” Liu Rui stepped forward, her eyes intently fixed on Ye Tianchen.
Hearing Liu Rui’s words, Ye Tianchen was stunned.
Of course, he wanted to find out who had tried to fra him and wanted him dead.
However, since returning from the U.S., he had been continuously busy and didn’t have the ti or energy to investigate, which caused the delay.
As for why Liu Rui wanted to clear this up, Ye Tianchen could guess a reason: besides wanting to clear her na as a girl, it was also because in recent years, the Liu family had grown strong and received the state’s patronage while other major families and forces were watching them like tigers eyeing their prey, and the Liu family also wanted to intimidate these opponents.
“So, what clues have you all found in your investigation?” Ye Tianchen took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff.
“Let be frank.
The main reason I want to uncover this incident and find the true culprit is that, over the past few years, we’ve felt that this mastermind is still trying to target our Liu family.
As for your Ye family’s ongoing decline and the inability of older generations to achieve anything, this might be the reason too…” Liu Rui said seriously to Ye Tianchen.
“So what you an is, this mastermind wants to target both our Liu and Ye families and eliminate us?” Ye Tianchen asked, puzzled.
“Exactly!”
Ye Tianchen frowned, finding Liu Rui’s words quite sensible while also feeling alard that the mastermind was not only targeting the Liu and Ye families but had been secretly manipulating and sabotaging things to uncover so unknown secrets for many years.
This mastermind was formidable; even with the current power of the Liu family, they had been unable to discover him, which was indeed remarkable.
“Continue speaking…” Ye Tianchen ca back to his senses and took another puff of his cigarette.
“To delve into this matter, we must start with Bai Wu.
The rest of us getting close to Bai Wu will surely make him cautious.
You are the best person for this job because you, Ye Tianchen, used to be a frivolous young master.
I believe mingling with Bai Wu again shouldn’t be a problem!” Liu Rui said, a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.
“Bai Wu is indeed a clue.
But I, Ye Tianchen, haven’t been involved in the underworld for many years.
Though legends of ‘brother’ still prevail, they might not be efficacious!” Ye Tianchen said seriously.
Both Liu Rui and Yong Chun Tai felt like giving Ye Tianchen a beating at that mont; the guy was sotis too unreliable, talking about important matters one mont and then suddenly switching to a roguish deanor, which was quite exasperating.
“So are you saying you agree?
We join forces to find this person behind the scenes so he can no longer be a threat to our Liu and Ye families!” Liu Rui asked Ye Tianchen.
“Sure, I’ll make a trip to Heaven and Earth when I’m free.
As for what you need to do, just act as if nothing has happened.
Until then, we shouldn’t contact each other.
If, like you said, this person behind the scenes is still monitoring and manipulating things, I believe we are still being watched right now!” As Ye Tianchen spoke, his Superpower Perception spread instantaneously, ready to decisively eliminate any suspicious individuals if found.
